Once and Future

Tales of Eirlandia Book One

Mary Norton

A lost journal. A legendary queen. A war that never truly ended.

The discovery of the ArdRighan Tara Prima's journal could change the fate of Eirlandia. The warrior-scholar Maeve, tasked with retrieving this ancient text, soon realizes its contents hold the key to ending a centuries-old conflict. But she is not the only one seeking its power.

Tara's own story unfolds within the journal's pages-her capture by the Vike prince Alaric, her struggle to unite warring nations, and her quest to master magic strong enough to defeat the Formorrid. As Maeve races against time to unlock the journal's secrets, she must navigate political intrigue, treacherous alliances, and the growing shadows of war.

Once and Future is the spellbinding first book in the Tales of Eirlandia series, blending rich world-building, historical intrigue, and an unforgettable heroine's journey.
